How often should you test your blood glucose?
If you have type 1 diabetes, you may need to check your blood glucose levels several times a day (pre and post-meals, before and after exercise) or as advised by your doctor. Whereas, if you have type 2 diabetes, the frequency of monitoring the sugar levels might be based on the severity of the condition, which can be several times a day, once a day, or thrice a week. Therefore, it would be best to consult your doctor about how often you should test your blood glucose.
